Vintage Red and Aqua Potholders Crochet Pattern

SKU: PB106-02

NOTE: If you want to use the finished vintage potholder in the kitchen, I suggest lining them with either a store bought potholder or layers of cotton quilt batting. Another idea is to place hot cookware on the backside of your potholder to protect the front from scorch marks. I have seen a few old potholders with a cotton backing added to them showing signs of scorching. The front of the potholder is like new but the back shows all the wear and tear from use.

The possibilities with these pot holders are endless and will come in handy during your next family barbecue.
